What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Summary

This study observes whether the depth of anesthesia, measured by a brain activity monitor (BIS), affects how easily a breathing tube can be placed on the first try in emergency room patients. Adults undergoing rapid sequence intubation will wear a forehead sensor, but doctors will not see the readings. The goal is to see if patients who need multiple attempts have different anesthetic depth than those who succeed on the first try.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If a link is found, it could help doctors optimize sedation for safer intubation in emergencies.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, so it cannot prove cause and effect. Results may not change practice directly.

This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.
